Does it remind anyone else of Pokémon? I feel like a nerd for admitting it, but I totally used to watch Pokémon when I was in middle school. And played the Game Boy game – red or blue. Back when there were only 150 types of these little creatures. Who knows how many there are now…ask any 10-year-old and I’m sure they could tell you. It’s still popular, right? No?

Speaking of treats, before I leave for the US, I am going to get an ice cream cone from Eisliebe – ice cream love – the best place in the neighborhood. There’s always a big line out front, but it’s SO worth it. It’s the best ice cream I’ve ever tasted.
